description This article presents the results of a case study evaluated through modified heuristics-based method in conformation to the Universal Design principles, in a Planned Commercial Center. The main objective is to analyze the application potential of the modified heuristic evaluation as a universal usability inspection method allied to the pluralistic method of inspection. The evaluation is composed of three subsequent sessions: (1) pre-interview, in which five expert interdisciplinary evaluators analyze the Planned Commercial Center’s architectonic projects concerning the Universal Design principles and spatial accessibility and fill out a structured interview form; (2) activities in settings, in which each expert answers the form again during the development of pre-defined activities; and (3) post-interview, in which the forms were once again answered through a reanalysis of the architectonic projects. As result, it was identified that the modified heuristic evaluation can instate effectively the project evaluation before the fact and in the post-occupation evaluation, providing interaction between the architectonic project analysis and the space use. Therefore, further studies on universal usability and its use in inclusive spaces are of paramount importance. This research presented itself as an initial step for the universal usability evaluation in architecture, and recommends applied tests to the architectonic context, because they highlight the importance of interdependent elements analysis inside the constructed environment, and must be implemented to the universal project process.

Usability Universal Design Accessibility Evaluation Heuristic This article presents the results of a case study evaluated through modified heuristics-based method in conformation to the Universal Design principles, in a Planned Commercial Center.

Este artigo apresenta os resultados de um estudo de caso com avaliaçao através do método baseado em heurísticas modificado em conformaçao aos princípios do Desenho Universal, em Centro Comercial Planejado. O objetivo principal é analisar o potencial de aplicaçao da avaliaçao heurística modificada como método de inspeçao de usabilidade universal, aliada ao percurso pluralístico. A avaliaçao apresenta tres sessoes subsequentes: (1) pré-entrevista, em que cinco avaliadores especialistas interdisciplinares analisam os projetos arquitetônicos do Centro Comercial Planejado em relaçao aos princípios do Desenho Universal e acessibilidade espacial e preenchem formulário de entrevista estruturada; (2) atividades em cenários, em que cada avaliador responde novamente o formulário no desenvolvimento de atividades pré-definidas; e (3) pós-entrevista, em que os formulários foram novamente respondidos através de reanálise dos projetos arquitetônicos. Como resultado, foi identificado que a avaliaçao heurística modificada pode integrar com eficácia a avaliaçao de projeto antes do fato e na avaliaçao pós-ocupaçao, produzindo interaçao entre análise de projeto arquitetônico e o uso do espaço. Assim sendo, destaca-se a necessidade de estudos mais aprofundados sobre usabilidade universal e seu uso na concepçao de ambientes inclusivos. Esta pesquisa mostrou-se como etapa inicial para a avaliaçao de usabilidade universal na arquitetura e recomenda testes aplicados ao contexto arquitetônico, pois salientam a relevância de análise de elementos interdependentes no ambiente construído e devem ser integrados ao processo de projeto universal.
